I am watching the closing of the oylimpics.This makes me very sad.Both my tvs have been on NBC since it started.All of these athletes ARE WINNERS in my eyes.I can't imagine all the blood sweat and tears they have gone thru.

My dream one day,would be able to attend and watch in person.

Hope all my Qfriends have a great work week.

@Luvsmyfam I enjoyed a lot of it but I'm not sad. Everything comes to an end. I lived most of my life in So. Cal. and loved the atmosphere during the 1984 Olympics. Fun times.

I have been watching the Olympics, summer and winter for a long time.  I watch the sports that I enjoy but appreciate all sports and those who enter the competitions.  It is exciting and and enjoyable and I think the Paris Olympics was a success  and well done.

 

Yes, I am sad it is over but also proud of all athletes from all over the globe, both winners and those who didn't win.  I am sure the experience will stay with them throughout their lives. It will be great having the next summer Olympics at Los Angeles!!!!

It's an athletic competition that those folks decided to take a shot at, knowing the odds, and deciding to try.  Not to win, but to compete.  It's their chosen life.

Not sad, but those two weeks provided the best of the best.

No, not sad at all. I never watched unless it was on my local news. I used to watch many years ago but recently some things taking place there is over the top ridiculous.

Good TV is now over! I love the olympics. Back to boring/nothing to watch TV.

Enjoyed the Tom Cruise fly in and taking it to LA.  Loved HER, Billie Elish and Dr. Dre with Snoop in LA.  

 

Yep, I will miss watching as we are a total sports family.
